Generalizing Continued Fractions - DIMACS REU
... Can we generalize this process to arbitrary division rings? • Recall that a division ring satisfies all of the axioms of a field except that multiplication is not required to be commutative. • Over a field, if f(x) is a monic polynomial of degree n, with n distinct roots 1,..., n , f (x) (x ...

... This proved to be unsuccessful for polynomials of degree exceeding 4, although mathematicians were certain that such polynomial equations had a root. Finally, in the nineteenth century, the situation was clarified. Gauss provided an argument that every polynomial had at least one complex zero and Ga ...
